Accidents at Work
Health and safety at work has improved dramatically over the years and there are many employers that provide excellent protection for their employees and contractors.
However, some do not – and accidents can happen. This can include things like:
As well as compensation for the injury itself, you can also claim for loss of earnings, the costs of any rehabilitation and a whole range of other out of pocket expenses that, but for the accident, you wouldn’t have incurred. These can include costs in the past, present and future.
Motorcycling, Cycling or Pedestrian
Accidents involving motorcycles, cycles or pedestrians can range from minor to very serious, including, sadly, fatalities.
Our Solicitors are compassionate people that understand the sensitivities of such events.
They have many years of experience and can help with every aspect of a claim that is not just limited to the award for injury, but for other things, such as rehabilitation, including psychological help, expert care and assistance and all out of pocketing losses for the past, present and/or future.
Claims for Children (And Minors Under 18)
There are special rules for claims for children. And unlike claims for adults, there is no 3 year limitation period for bringing a claim for someone under the age of 18 in England or Wales, so even if it was a few years ago, a claim can still be brought.
Our Solicitors have years of experience and know all about these rules and how to achieve the best outcome for such claims, even it was indeed a few years ago.
Our Solicitors also work with specialist medical experts who will be able to assess the medical impact and needs of the minor.
Trip, Slip or Fall (Including Falling Items)
The circumstances in which people can trip, slip or fall, or an item(s) falling on to a person are numerous.
It could be in any public place, the road, in a supermarket, or other indoor building.
You could have suffered a minor slip or even a very heavy item falling on to you. The needs for each case will be specific.
Wherever it was, and whatever has happened, our Expert Solicitors will know exactly how to deal with it, so you can sit back and let them do what they’re best at knowing that you’re in the best hands.
Hair, Beauty or Cosmetic
With the surge in new and innovative treatments that are available in the modern day, so too has the number of incidents occurring where the treatment hasn’t gone to plan.
It could be a burn from a product that wasn’t patch tested, a scar from a cosmetic treatment or even a cosmetic dental or laser treatment that didn’t go to plan.
After such an event, you will need an Expert Solicitor that has experience of these types of claims, which is where we come in.
Faulty Product
Have you been sold a product, or even just used a product that was faulty and it has caused you injury?
There can be several avenues to pursue when it comes to claims like this; be it via consumer legislation, occupiers’ liability, employers liability and/or straight up public liability and/or negligence.
Our Solicitors are experts in this field and will be able to give you the best advice and service to help you with any consequences that flow from that injury.
